I suggested that the poster I replied to saying he'd be happy with a cheap striker as long as he was quality was lying otherwise the cheap quality striker we signed would be lauded as Lukaku's replacement already. Pretty straightforward post.
Yes, straightforward and wrong.

Koeman has already told us that Sandro is not Lukaku's replacement because he wants another striker and thinks it's 'very important'. Hence me pointing out that you telling fans to pipe down was one thing but you might want to also say it to the manager as he has the same feelings.

I know the manager wants a new striker, I know the fans do, I know I do; not sure when I've ever said anything remotely different. My point was merely financial and what our fan base considers an acceptable transfer or not.
 

Think this raises a point I've been meaning to make for quite a while this summer. If you look at the profile of players we've signed this Summer why do fans then feel like it's a guarantee we should be signings strikers from the Arsenal's, Chelsea's, Roma's etc. of the world? When have we shown we can prize away talent from top teams? And no I don't consider Ajax a top team any more.
Well considering the players we signed chose use over much higher profile clubs is kind of a good thing
 
If Friday comes and we're still without a striker I'll be as pissed off as the rest of you. There's still 30-some hours left of the window and I guarantee we're working on deals behind the scenes.
Moaning about it now (when WE can't do an awful lot about it) makes you seem like a desparate little bish.

Many are showing the appropriate level of concern given how long we've had to get this sorted, and how unlikely it is a club will sell us a quality player this late in the window. But feel free to label them all bedwetters if that makes you happy.

They did but when have we shown we have the tools available to take a player from a club considered bigger/more successful than ours? I think perspective flew out of the window a little too early this Summer.
